Coal India Ltd reported a steady performance for the March quarter, with both revenue and profitability witnessing moderate year-on-year growth, supported by stable operational metrics.
The state-run miner posted a net profit of ₹10,839 crore for Q4 FY26, registering an 11.15% increase compared to ₹9,751.6 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. The growth in profit came alongside a rise in revenue and operating earnings during the period.
Revenue from operations stood at ₹46,490 crore, up 5.8% year-on-year from ₹43,961 crore, indicating consistent demand and stable pricing environment for coal during the quarter.
At the operating level, EBITDA rose 6.2% to ₹12,673.2 crore as against ₹11,932 crore in Q4 FY25. However, EBITDA margin remained flat at 27% on a year-on-year basis, suggesting that cost pressures largely offset the gains from revenue growth.
The company’s performance reflects steady operational execution despite a relatively moderate growth environment, with margins holding firm even as input and operational costs remained a factor.
In addition to the earnings announcement, the board of Coal India has recommended a final dividend of ₹5.25 per equity share for FY26. The dividend is subject to approval of shareholders at the upcoming Annual General Meeting.
Coal India continues to remain a key player in India’s energy landscape, with its financial performance closely linked to coal demand trends, production levels, and pricing dynamics across sectors such as power and industrial consumption.
